Nick Nice
Nick Van Nice is a veteran market strategist and former professional trading advisor with over 30 years of experience in stock and options markets, specializing in Tesla (TSLA) and leading Nasdaq-100 (QQQ) stocks.
Nick began his market career under the direct mentorship of his father, Joe Van Nice, from 1990 to 1995, where he learned disciplined trading, risk management, and rule-based system design. He later took over the family investment research business with private-equity backing, helping scale professional advisory and publishing operations.
As President of Dearborn Financial Publishing, Nick led the development of multiple trading systems, including the #1-rated Trend-Setter system, recognized for its disciplined trend-following methodology and consistency across market cycles. His work emphasized price structure, volatility, and asymmetric risk-to-reward setups.
Nick has studied under market legends Larry Williams, Tom DeMark, and Glen Ring, served as an assistant researcher to a hedge fund manager, and has been a CNBC contributor, translating institutional-level market insights into clear, executable frameworks.
Today, Nick is known for his deep, long-term specialization in Tesla, where innovation, earnings momentum, AI, and technical structure converge. He focuses on identifying high-probability trend inflections and long-duration growth phases using equities and options—including long-dated LEAPS and defined-risk strategies – while maintaining strict downside discipline.
